Well folks, I've taken the plunge this morning and turned off the Aga...so now our small HYSapentia oven sits on the hot plate on the side of said Aga. Not sure my decision is really the correct one, however only time will tell us. It was rather stuffy in here this morning and I absolutely refuse to open a window due to it being too hot whilst the Aga is on.
Having done that though I anticipate lighting the woodturner in the living room sometime later today. I do hope we will be able to give the Aga a good rest though as much as I love baking and cooking in and on it, being all electric it is rather an expensive hobby to have.
Bedding is flapping outside on the washing line, though not sure for how much longer, we started the morning with glorious sunshine, but now things have clouded considerably.
I feel a little con fuddled truth be told. Having worked mainly three shifts out of the home for several weeks, and one four day stint, I've been feeling rather bereft at only having two this week. I know, I just can't win. Think I'm happier being rather busy, though the balance between happiness and exhaustion is not that great a gap.
The weather hasn't been really conducive to taking pictures around the garden, but this snap is from when I started planting up some tubs a few weeks ago. They are now out and about taking their chances in our delightful English weather.
Blessings, J. x
Finding that balance can prove rather tricky at times. The planters look gorgeous already. They will, no doubt, look even lovelier in the coming months. Xx
ReplyDeleteThe planters are indeed blooming marvellously! xx
DeleteAh, but just think of the joy when you and the Aga are reunited in autumn. Meantime, I hope your weather has been as splendid as today was in Lincs. Beautiful colours in those planters.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait...we have at times been feeling the chill. x
